It’s to bad because I really like Neil Patrick Harris and Allyson Hannigan. But their performances are stunted because the writing is so bad. If this is the best these two had offered to them I suggest new agents. Or new careers.

On a scale of 1-10, 10 being incredible, this is a 3 at best. More like a 2.1323221.

I think it got better after the first season. I enjoy it. Sometimes it’s comforting to watch something that fits the formula. But I remember kind of feeling like I could take it or leave it the first season.

You know, I don’t totally remember. I watched it while it was on (and I don’t know that I’d still like it if I watched it all at once on a disc). I just remember it going from a show I’d watch when nothing else was on (we don’t have cable, so that happens often) to a show I make an effort to watch. But I grew up on sitcoms and I do find something comforting about that format.

If you still have the discs — watch the last one and see if it’s any better. Maybe give season 2 a try. Neil Patrick Harris makes the show, if you ask me.
